About Maritime
Western New York Maritime Charter School is a military-style public charter school built on structure, accountability, and leadership development . Our classrooms are predictable, disciplined, and focused on execution.
We do not operate in a loose or unstructured model. Teachers here are expected to lead, enforce, and deliver results .
Who We Are Looking For
We are not looking for someone who "likes math" and hopes students will engage.
We are looking for a teacher who:

  • Runs a tight, structured classroom every period
  • Can manage behavior consistently without escalation
  • Holds students accountable for showing work, thinking, and completing tasks
  • Is comfortable addressing issues immediately, not later
  • Understands that math success requires discipline, repetition, and clarity
  • Thrives in a high-expectation, no-excuses environment
If your classroom tends to become inconsistent, off-task, or dependent on student motivation, this is not the right fit.

  • You are prepared and on time, every day
  • You follow schoolwide systems and expectations with fidelity
  • You do not ignore low-level disruption
  • You hold students accountable for both behavior and academic output
  • You maintain professionalism at all times
